In a poll, students were asked to choose which of six colors was their favorite. The circle graph shows how the students answered. If 19,000 students participated in the poll, how many chose Blue?
45% chose blue
To find out how many students chose blue, we need to calculate 45% of the total number of students (19,000).
45% of 19,000 = (45/100) * 19,000
= 0.45 * 19,000
= 8,550
So, 8,550 students chose blue.
